Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.
Isolation
This virus is a genetic variant of the Urabe AM9 strain. It differs in passage history and nucleotide sequence from other Urabe AM9-derived vaccine strains, and has been administered as a vaccine without excessive numbers of adverse reactions. It has been fully sequenced (GenBank accession no. AF314558)
Product Format
frozen
Storage Conditions
?-70°C or colder
